Default US : Corporal Punishment to be brought back in some Schools?

Wtf is going on in America lately, **** me


A town will reintroduce corporal punishment in its schools following discussions between teachers, parents and officials on how to improve discipline.


Punishing students physically was stopped in the district of Cassville, Missouri in 2001.

However, misbehaving students face being struck with a wooden paddle under new proposals, which will also see mobile phones banned from classrooms and an academy created for pupils who fail to thrive in a traditional classroom setting.

Missouri is one of 19 states in the US where corporal punishment is still legal.

Only “certified personnel” would be allowed to carry out corporal punishments – which would be reserved for when “alternative means of discipline have failed” - and they would be administered in front of a district employee who would act as a witness.

Children would not be struck in front of other students, with younger students being hit on the buttocks once or twice, with up to three blows for older students.


The Times reported a memo circulated among parents which said: “It shall be administered so that there can be no chance of bodily injury or harm. Striking a student on the head or face is not permitted.”

Cassville school district superintendent Merlyn Johnson told the Springfield Newsleader: “Parents have said ‘why can’t you paddle my student?’

Quite simply .... Donald Trump. It has given all these right wing extremists a voice and they are using it. In fairness, i think America has always been this way, they have just been silenced for a while and are now making up for lost time

I tripped over a kerb the other day, that was Trump's fault too. Y'know who I blame for losing my phone for hours on end when it was in my cardi pocket all along? You guessed it!

Thanks, Trump
